INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup Buttermilk
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tbsp Whole Wheat Flour
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
Cooking Spray
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a shallow bowl, combine the buttermilk with a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Place the chicken breast in the buttermilk mixture, ensuring it is fully submerged, and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate shallow dish, mix together the whole wheat breadcrumbs, whole wheat flour, and a little extra paprika and garlic powder for added flavor.
Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge the chicken thoroughly in the breadcrumb mixture, making sure both sides are evenly coated.
Place the coated chicken on the prepared baking tray and lightly spray the top with cooking spray.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the coating turns crispy and golden brown.
Allow the chicken to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crunchy, flavorful meal!
